American Woman - Lenny Kravitz cover

American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come hanging around my door
I don't want to see your face no more
I got more important things to do
Than spend my time growin' old with you
Now woman, stay away
American woman, listen what I say

American woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come knocking around my door
I don't want to see your shadow no more
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, get away
American woman, listen what I say

American woman, I said get way
American woman, listen what I say
Don't come hanging around my door
Don't want to see your face no more
I don't need your war machines
I don't need your ghetto scenes
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, get away
American woman, listen what I say
American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be

I gotta go
I gotta getta away
Think I gotta go
I wanna fly away
I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
Bye bye, bye bye
Bye bye, bye bye
American woman
And you're no good for me
And I'm no good for you
I look you right straight in the eye
And tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna leave you woman
You know I gotta go
I'm gonna leave you woman
I gotta go
I gotta go

I gotta go
American woman
Yeah

2. Pretty much

I do like the song a lot...both The Guess Who, and the Lenny Kravitz versions!

3. 'Best of the Guess Who'

was one of the first 8-track tapes I bought. It was a bootleg. Cut off "Bus Rider" before the end. :eyes:

4. MMMM 8 track tapes

Did you ever have one that switched tracks before one of the songs was over...what a pain!

5. Yeah, the one I just said

And quite a few others that jumped a song from one track to another. "Chicago Live at Carnegie Hall" (the first tapes I ever owned) did that on "Happy 'Cause I'm Goin' Home." :grr:

I was such a geek that I even got an 8-track recorder and made my own. :eyes:
